Step 5
Once thawed, place the tofu pieces in a tea-towel and lightly press them with your hands to remove even more water.
Step 6
Place the tofu pieces in a bowl and sprinkle lightly with soy sauce. toss to coat evenly. Then drizzle a light coating of oil and toss to coat. Then cover lightly with salt and then cornflour. Toss to coat until you can see no more cornflour. If you add too much, just remove some from the bowl and continue.
Step 7
Place the tofu pieces on a baking tray and place into an oven preheated to 180c (355F) and cook for 20 to 30 minutes or until the tofu has browned and is dry to the touch.
